Please if you have not subscribed to my blog, click on the big subscribe button above and enter your email address. This is the last Thursday in the International Women’s Month and I had so much fun writing about women-focused content.

I chose to write about feminists related myths this week because I observed that many have uninformed pre-conceived notions about feminists and I wanted to clear the air about these popular notions as seen on Nigerian Twitter.

Quick background about me, I am the 3rd child of 6 girls. I don’t know when I became passionate about women but I think my position in my family played a role in this. I remember my dad saying to me “don’t let anyone despise you because you are a girl. You are capable of greatness”. I mean 6 girls right; society must have really pressured them for a son.
